The former TOWIE star took to his Instagram Stories on his home account to show off the progress.
Whilst he filmed the garden work being done, Mark explained to his fans the recent bad weather put a pause on the pool being completed.
He explained: ‘Cause of the constant rain, the grass is doing exceptionally well, but it means the pool had to come to a halt because we couldn’t obviously tile – they wouldn’t stick while it was full up on water. There was like two inches of water. we have drained it all out today.’
In one video the workmen tiled the top step on the pool. Mark went on to reveal why they made this specific design choice to his followers.
The reality star said: ‘The reason why we have done a big deep top step is because it’s almost like a little kids pool… Dogs, the kids can paddle around in it and we can sit on top of here… Love the design.’
During some of the video snaps, Mark delivered the workmen cheese and coleslaw sandwiches and glasses of orange squash as they were busy at work.
